    From the MSDN ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 5.0 and 6.0 Topic:

    The Application_Start and
    Application_End methods are special
    methods that do not represent
    HttpApplication events. ASP.NET calls
    them once for the lifetime of the
    application domain, not for each
    HttpApplication instance.

    Application_End Called once per
    lifetime of the application before the
    application is unloaded.

    So it does not relate to when all user sessions have closed. It occurs when the application is unloaded from memory, i.e. as the result of a web.config or global.asax file change or ASP.NET recompilation, or, I presume, when the site is set to stopped from the web site management interface of IIS6.
